CRAP! MALARIA PILLS!

We totally forgot we needed them. When I asked around, some of my Indian brethren said - 'dude, you totally need that stuff. Plus, you should have started taking it 2 weeks ago!' Then there's the hippie camp which told me, 'bro, don't need'em ... too pricey. But get some immodium AD instead.' Huh??

Well, I think we may have to con somebody into hooking it up with the pills. Now, to prevent illness, we've pretty much resolved to drinking only bottled botter and beer (preferably more beer than not). Ah yes, and let's not forget that everything has to be cooked (I bet my raw vegan organic friends out there are falling out of their chairs).

Indeed, it's gonna be a test of wits out there to see which one of us can last longest sans illness. The real brain-teaser, is nonetheless, this whole beer-as-a-disinfectant business. From what I hear, beer will help clean the food in case it's lil' bit bad. Also, beer could be used to clean utensils, plates, etc. And finally, in lieu of cocktails with tainted ice, beer is no problemo. Now, the only problem, aside from being constantly drruunnkk, is what happens when we're wasted & hungry. I don't know about you, but after a couple pints of King Fishers, I won't have a clue if that chutney is cooked or not. Hence, a definite Catch-22 paradox.
